I respect the way he speaks about his ex wife and the daughter of his ex and Michael. He adores their daughter which is lovely. Deep respect for his kind heart.
He pulled off one of the greatest concerts in history, against all odds! Live Aid, for whatever outcome, lives were saved and the world got to watch in real time. Kudos for having faith and succeeding.
I've always wanted to meet a poet. Not someone who can make a rhyme, someone who is a complete genius with telling the truth. Listen to the bloke. No words to explain.
@maureenwest3563 my granddaughter met this man whilst travelling to aeroflot and gave her a copy of his greatest hits album which he kindly signed. She could sense the deep pain behind his beautiful blue eyes and the tears absorbed by his tasteful shirt. Upon leaving the aircraft he very quickly offered the captain a tip of 20 euros to compensate for the crystal glasses he accidently broke. What a nice gentleman and his work ethics are very much admired in Scandinavia.
@markdaly1648 I have to laugh when he speaks of the family having no money 😂 He was educated at Blackrock College the most exclusive college in Dublin. The school is renowned for its rugby success and its exclusivity. He actually came from an upper class area of Dublin. He has a tendency to paint a picture of himself as coming from a poor background which wasn't actually the case. Exaggerated stories are part of being Irish.

it was just amazing Television! So entertaining and exciting!
Respect to this man, helped millions of deprived people. And went through hell with bereavement and public scandal with his ex wife. So good luck to this man..
He did help do not get me wrong but there was no follow up. They supported Ethiopia and then left and it all went into disrepair and desolation from what I personally saw. But lives were saved.
😂 Love the way Bob fluffs his hair at the start of the interview, carefully coiffed 'bed ' hair, probably spent hours in front of the mirror, wanting us to think otherwise.😂
Geldof, was yet another one of those "tortured" artists that in their own mind are so much more deeper than the average person. Nobody can feel emotions like they do. Its sad really. Songs are simple, people like them for a while and then they move on to real life.
He’s probably the most straight up, grounded, real, intelligent personality. If he’s over rated it’s a reflection of a collective idol worshipping moronic society
We Australians 🛐💌🎭Parky. The eloquent Mr GELDORF 🍀🍀💌🎭 is someon i've admired for eons, wondering now if its because our faces are similarly squishy and his grey is identical to some of the many colours sprouting from my skull
To get where Michael and Bob are you have to be full of yourself, theres nothing wrong with it, the worst thing in life is being the opposite and letting yourself pail into insignificance when you have talent.
The man has the courage of a Lion. Lost his mother, lost his wife (twice) left him then died, lost his daughter. As an Irishman I'm very proud he's a member of my tribe. He could have ended up a coked up Rockstar but he didn't. He's confident not arrogant.
It's absurd to say music doesn't change anything and I'm glad Geldof didn't let it slide. The hippie, reggae and punk movements educated entire generations of people and moved them to think and act, albeit just vote a certain way. Parkinson obviously thinks music doesn't go much further than Sinatra waxing enthusiastic about the status quo. There's always been protest music. There's always been carnivals. Music has always had an impact, just like other forms of art. Apolitical art is singled out because art is inherently an agent of change.
@@christophercook9745 You forgot Rat Trap was number 1, as well as Mondays. How about Banana Republic no. 3? Like Clockwork no. 6? Someone's Looking At You no. 4? How about 13 top 30 hits? How many hits have you had?
The Boom Town Rats will never be regarded as a classic band but this man as had a lot of tragedy in his life and in his own way,maybe some what naively ,has tried to some good for this world,so I salute him for that.
A Boomtown Rat that made good by collecting ego's to preform for free and he could set up a trust that just keeps on giving without lifting a finger ... Who would have thought ???
I respect the way he speaks about his ex wife and the daughter of his ex and Michael. He adores their daughter which is lovely. Deep respect for his kind heart.
I love him…a wonderful human being ♥️ from Mexico City…Pili…adore you 🌹

He is strong man and a loving man.God Bless him and his family
Love him then and now one of our great Irish men. Wish we had these heroes now in Ireland❤
Surely some mistake, an award for his music?
boomtown rats were brilliant 🎉
My goodness, I had no idea that Sir Bob had/has such a great sense of humour. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview! Thank you!
I like Bob....... He speaks his truth eloquently
I adore Geldof hes brutally honest clever & been through deep pain in his personal life however he is still rocking it ❤
He's a creep.

Always tells as it is. Admirable.
Love Bob Gildoff natural as they come❤❤❤ beautiful soul❤❤❤
I love this man for so many reasons ❤ when was this interview I wonder…
Great interesting interview with Bob Geldof!❤
Outstanding contribution to music 😂😂😂😂
What contribution lol
@AGNETHAFALTSK0G 😂😂😂 I was thinking the same.
This is an old episode. Parky is now dead
@markdaly1648 really, nobody told me 😂😂😂
@markdaly1648 I have to laugh when he speaks of the family having no money 😂

He caused it?
Never helped anyone! The money went to rich Africans! He caused the trauma to Paula as everyone knows he is homosexual but hiding it
Agreed 💯 😢❤❤❤
@dondamon4669 how do you know he's gay?
Seems a nice interesting deep guy tbh....I loved don't like Mondays.....❤
😂 Love the way Bob fluffs his hair at the start of the interview, carefully coiffed 'bed ' hair, probably spent hours in front of the mirror, wanting us to think otherwise.😂
Bob and showed us how to survive and thrive in spite of it all.
Glen Ponder at his finest.
Ah-haaaa
Bob Geldolf i greatly respect, survived great sadness and loss in his life and endured, the boomtown rats are classic underappreciated band
A good man, a great dad. He's suffered so much loss.
Bob, sending love to you x rhexFamily. Keep going yoyo on right path. Love x Blessings jojo.❤❤❤
Taking the credit from Midge Ure, well done bob
Pity he doesn't stand up for Ireland and the Irish ..... Or is he English he knows the Irish see right through him !
XX❤.😂
What are u on about????
Bob is working with an organization for Dublin.
Geldof, was yet another one of those "tortured" artists that in their own mind are so much more deeper than the average person. Nobody can feel emotions like they do. Its sad really. Songs are simple, people like them for a while and then they move on to real life.
Today he is a millionaire and owns theatres in London . He has a lot of connections.
Where does he get his money from. The band didnt make anything only one hit
Geldof,,,the man of every hour,,,the man with the correct words...genius
nice bloke speaks his mind
❤❤❤
Fascinating. Woody Guthrie wow
i was just hearing about AI Parkinson?
Walking Dictionary, genius !!!
Rubbish!
He talks shite 😅😅
Always think of "the wall " when I. See him. He had had a tragic and interesting life.
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
Too clever for this show my man !
Nice one Johnny..oops sorry its Bob.......
IF MICHAEL HUTCHINSON WAS ALIVE HE WOULD OF GOT IT
To be honest geldolf is well over rated, nothing against him ,
Agree.
@laurenceroe3146 where you in the same talent show in high school and Bob won the trophy? Sorry you will soon get your turn on the global platform.
“It’s a question of taste”……said the cat, licking its arse…..
😂

His wife is a lovely woman, Mary Berry
Why don't he like monday night football
Parky's interviews are missed ... and Bob Geldof was a great interviewee ... but Parky criticising his fashion sense while wearing that tie ??
Great television
would've been nice to hear the whole show.
I’m thinking Asperger’s
Is it a wig
You wish.
@@dadodydo Is it a plane
Where did he disappear to? Is he nailed to a cross and can’t get down…..😅
…..Smelly Bob.
British Isles...shame on you,Bob
He's not as I expected, his openness is quite refreshing and could in some circumstances be quite frightening I suspect.
A strange man talking about nothing really,
Types the one with no name on a thread about Bob Geldof :D
His life & character if you cared to listen
U know nothing about anything
SO GOOD BOB I HAD A DIFF THING ABOUT YOU SORRY x
One of my very few heroes…and I get a lot of flack for that… but I don’t care.
He’s done a lot for charity .
@@phillipcarter8045 Im playing devils advocate here because I really like geldof but the charity thing makes me think "jimmy saville"
Took 15 minutes of fame and used it to help the world
You do care .
@@gerrylambert5225 Awe Gerry did you not get yours :D
You do wonder when listening to Bob if he's this wonderful kind, caring man or just a pompous full of himself twit.
To get where Michael and Bob are you have to be full of yourself, theres nothing wrong with it, the worst thing in life is being the opposite and letting yourself pail into insignificance when you have talent.

@@MR-mc6rj Well said Bro :)
Bit if both I would say but definitely not an easy character.
@@MR-mc6rj you said it
Lost his mother 😢 sad
Speak about the genocide in front of ur eyes
Where's Bono bob?
With his elite WEF pals
Boomtown rat's 😊😊
Life’s accolades seem a burden for Saint Geldof

Yes, he's completely out of touch with that comment.
Non-dom. 'Nuff sed?
I bet if Bob watched this today, he would absolutely cringe at his hair style back then !!!
Geldof these days ,bit of a prat basically
A pregnant goldfish? first i've heard
Davies most days, bit of a prat basically trolling on YT
Always undermining the Irish...you just can't get over us,pathetic...
always has been a one hit prat

He’s so boring…
